Our Vision

The PATH Foundation will be a leader in the state in overall health status improvement and private capital investment, as evidenced by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation County Health Rankings and related measures for each of our three counties. Check out our 2017 Annual Report.

Who We Are

On October 31, 2013, Fauquier Health and LifePoint Hospitals formed a joint venture to share ownership and operation of Fauquier Health, funding a charitable foundation to support crucial community needs.

The PATH Foundation (originally known as the Fauquier Health Foundation) Board of Directors convened for the first time on November 20, 2013. Meetings were regularly held to determine the mission, vision, strategic plan, funding priorities and grant making criteria.

The PATH Foundation is committed to honoring the legacy of community philanthropy by being good stewards of the foundation's assets and by using these assets to stimulate community benefit, inspire citizen engagement and support area resources. Our goal is to enhance the region as a place where everyone has the opportunity to have a healthy place to live, work, play and grow.

With a legacy of community philanthropy stretching back to 1954, the modern PATH Foundation manages the assets of this multigenerational gift to promote healthy communities today and in stewardship for our children’s grandchildren.
